An activist at a slavery reparations meeting in California blasted the $223,000 payments proposed for black residents in the state - yelling almost a quarter of a million dollars for each person is 'not enough'.
The eye-popping outburst came from Reverend Tony Pierce who voiced his dissatisfaction after California Secretary of State Dr. Shirley Weber opened up the floor to the public.
Nine task force members held the meeting in San Diego and welcomed guests for public comments to discuss California AB 3121...
...'There should be no residency requirements for California! We have to encourage our people to come back to California! What better way to encourage our people to come back to California if we have no requirements?' Pierce asked...
Marcus Champion with the Civil Justice Association of California at the time called for the 'direct cash payments, tax-exempt status, free college education, grants for homeownership, business grants, access to low to no business funding and capital.'....

And after Mohammed Ali returned from Zaire (Congo) and his fight with George Foreman, a reporter asked him what he thought of Africa. Ali replied: “Thank God my grand daddy got on that boat”.
So make each one that wants reparations prove they are descendants of slaves.
Good. Then take nothing at all.
He’s right. There’s no amount that would assuage these people’s demands. They’re permanent victims.
I wouldn’t call it Marxism. In Marxist terms, it’s an exploitation of the proletariat and the bourgeoisie for the benefit of the lumpenproletariat. Exactly the reverse of Marxism, both in theory and as it’s been practiced. And it’s even worse.
Re#10. The freed slaves were given reparations as stated in your post. That and 600,000 Americans perished in the civil war. I think pleanty has been paid out.
Jesus is the answer to your guilt. Not reparations.
Reparations should be a one way ticket to Africa period!
Right you are. However, I wonder just how many real slaves are still alive and living in California....when was slavery in the US ended?? About 150 years ago is the answer. If blacks should be angry at anyone it should be the black Chief of the tribe who traded their forefathers for shinny shit...the chief ever had his own people round them up and load them in the boats.
Lol, might as well ask for a million each, they'll get it.
Get it while you can, everything must go!
I was thinking they should offer 50 million each with a firm contract
Tell them later it’s 50million Zimbabwean dollars and they have to leave forever
It looks like this year, Mexicans will become the majority demographic in LA County. Try telling those Mexicans that they owe money to blacks for slavery reparations.
I agree should be at least a billion per. Of course whatever it is will never be enough. The race game is dangerous and has no good outcome.
They can by a lot of drugs and Nikes with a quarter million.
Great plan to kill off a lot of black folks.
Give blacks 100 years of complete federal taxes relief. There you go.
The people of Taiwan and Korea are generally industrious, intelligent and law-abiding. They value education and family. It’s easy to see why they have made considerable material progress in their countries.
It’s also easy to see why cultures which lack these qualities are not successful.
Muhammad Ali also publicly stated that he was glad his ancestors were on the slave ship. He did this after getting a good look at Africa during his “ Rumble in the Jungle.”
I would be for giving the one that think they’re owed anything that much if they would leave the USA forever and never come back. Overall, it would be cheaper for taxpayers if these types left. Wouldn’t need as many prisons and our safety would be better off. Who knows, we might be able to even go into our cities again.
